In his fifties Man Ray shaved half his face for the above self-portrait. Francis Naumann has suggested that this act may have referred to Man Ray’s duel identity as an American artist with strong ties in Europe. He was living in Hollywood at the time he took the photograph in 1942, and would return with his wife Juliet to Paris in 1951 to spent the rest of his life.
This large triptych print was published as an announcement for a work called Autoritratto (23 x 18 cm), a signed and numbered photo edition of 23 copies – together with a biographical text and an archivist’s note in pencil with the name of the artist.

“Approaches” is an interpretation of 115 art works that are part of the private collection of Kris van Dessel. From each work he took the most dominant colour and turned that into a plain monochrome surface that may be printed by the owner of the USB stick on standardized sheets of paper varying from size A4 to A0. There is no manual for the printing process. The artist gives the owner the freedom to have the prints machine folded into an A4 size, making it possible to store all prints in the cardboard box that comes with the edition.

JONATHAN MONK, The Magnetism of Colour, 2016
94 x 68 cm
silkscreen print on 150 gas C-mat paper, set of 10 magnets on cardboard base
signed on sticker, numbered
edition of 25 + 5 A.P.
(does not include a vitrine)
published by More Publishers, Brussels, Belgium
This print comes with a set of 10 colored magnets to hang the print on. The edition is signed and numbered on a adhesive label, glued on the back of the package of magnets.
This edition is part of a so-called Public Poster Program initiated by the More Publishers in Brussels. The show cases they are presented in are on display in Belgium at MuZee in Ostend, MuhKA in Antwerp and KASK in Ghent. Each month a new poster is launched on the theme time and space. More info at link: http://www.morepublishers.be/series/260
Basically a set of ten colour magnets on a piece of white cardboard is offered, but Jonathan Monk’s edition would not be a (typical) Monk piece if he wouldn’t make a repetition by having it simply reproduced. And that’s what he did using a poster as a vehicle of that drive, so characteristic for his way of working.
OLA VASILJEVA (and Zelda Ivkovic), Counting Steps Edition, 2016
59,4 x 42 cm
silkscreen, pencil drawing, collage on paper
stamped and numbered by the artist
edition 10 + 5 AP (here number 10/10)
inv.OVas 812
In 2008 Ola Vasiljeva founded OAOA / The Oceans Academy of Arts, a magazine and poster format as an experimental platform that plays with ideas of experimental systems of looking and reading. The would-be institution presents itself as real and plays with its own illusive image as a stage for the artist’s reflections. The magazine OAOA aims to de-condition and to un-learn in relation to the critique of reason and common logics. The result is a visual input of no-sense, fragmentation, de-funtion and a-chronology. In this sense Counting Steps Edition may be understood and read.
